Kali on RIoTboard – User Instructions

Use the dd utility to image this file to your microSD card. In our example, we use a microSD which is located at /dev/sdb. Change this as needed.

This process will wipe out your SD card. If you choose the wrong storage device, you may wipe out your computers hard disk.

xzcat kali-$version-riot.img.xz |ddof=/dev/sdb bs=512k

This process can take awhile depending on your device speed and image size.
